- Description: Mushrooms are nutritionally rich, healthy and medicinal. Pleurotus tuber-regium (Fr.) is one of the nutritious medicinal mushroom found in the tropics and subtropics, but with history of slow growth and low sclerotia yield. In this study, mutants were created by mycelia exposure to ultraviolet irradiation (at a wavelength of 254 nm and a distance of 45 cm), for 3 h and sub-cultured at 30 min interval. The DNA from the wild and mutant strains were extracted, PCR amplified and sequenced. A phylogenetic tree was constructed to show the degree of similarity and differences between the wild and the mutant strains. Fructification studies were conducted on Rhodes grass straw and sawdust to determine the viability of the mutant strains and any nutritional improvement. The wild strain of P. tuber-regium and mutant produced at 30 min (Pt30) cultivated on sawdust and Rhodes straw, yielded sclerotia with biological efficiency of 8.8 and 47.6% respectively. Proximate analysis of the sclerotium showed that the mutant, Pt30, had improved nutritional compositions compared to the wild strain with a total non-structural carbohydrate concentration of 2.41 g as against 0.93 g. Conclusively in this study, better strains of P. tuber-regium were produced with faster growth rate, higher mycelia ramification rate on lignocellulosic substrate and a higher sclerotia yield than the wild P. tuber-regium. It was also established that mutagenesis is capable of improving P. tuber-regium for a successful commercial venture in sclerotia production.

- Description: Publisher version , Pleurotus tuber-regium (Fr.) Singer (1951) is a unique sclerotium-forming edible and medicinal mushroom. Interestingly, both the sclerotium and mushroom are edible and are often used for curing various ailments. Previous studies have focused on the antimicrobial and antioxidant activity of the extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) from wild P. tuber-regium. There has been no report on the intracellular polysaccharide (IPS) of the wild mycelia, likewise there is very meager information on the improvement of the perceived potentials of P. tuber-regium. This research study analysed the EPS and IPS fractions of P. tuber-regium hybrid and mutant strains. The antimicrobial potential of the IPS and EPS fractions, their scavenging activity on 1, 1-diphenyl–2picryhydrazyl (DPPH) and Hydroxyl radicals were also determined. Both IPS and EPS fractions of P. tuber-regium hybrids and mutants showed increased DPPH and hydroxyl scavenging activity over the wild P. tuber-regium with an EC50 mostly 1 mg/ml. The antimicrobial activity of the IPS from a mutant strain had an IC50 of 15.6 mg/ml compared to the wild type (18.75 mg /ml). This study showed that selected mutant and hybrids of P. tuber-regium had increased radical scavenging activity indicating potentially increased biological activity that could offer increased benefit as a neutraceutical.
